The suit is also for protection against jellyfish and cold

Children should never play unprotected on the water or in the sun.

Therefore SEEMANN designed a special suit for children. The full-length suit is in bright gray and yellow colors and has a diagonal back zipper. The elastic material makes it easy to put it on and off. The fresh Rebel logo showing a funny comic shark on the chest should give children a good feeling.

According to their own statement the suit complies with the requirements of the new European standard UV-801. This standard was developed because the former australian NROM SPF50+ was no sufficient protection. The new method does not only test the tissue of the material. It also has to pass the tests when wet, stretched or used - what's a bit more realistic. The suit provides a UV protection factor of 80.

The new product is available from now on in sizes XXXS (92 cm, about 2 years) to L (152 cm) at authorized SEEMANN dealers. A retail price of 65 euros is suggested. (jdo)
